We help brands, industry partners and investors realize systemic change.

BRANDS

A new generation of consumers values transparency and sustainability, but convoluted supply chains make it difficult for brands to deliver on these values. We help brands move toward innovative and closed-loop supply chains that align with consumer demands.

INDUSTRY PARTNERS

We assist [1] policymakers and economic development agencies in identifying opportunities and implementing initiatives and [2] industry organizations and events with the integration of new technologies and approaches.

INVESTORS

We work with private equity and venture capital firms to develop fashion investing strategies.

The disruptions ahead are so profound that mass-market apparel players making big moves and capturing the advantages of nearshoring and automation will have a significant first-mover advantage. The business models they build will drive growth and be difficult for others to replicate.

— McKinsey & Company, The State of Fashion 2019
